All Her Secrets

Following the voice, the people present turned their heads and saw a tall and handsome young man walking towards them with several executives in tow. They all gasped to see him.

The man had a breathtakingly gorgeous face. Catherine frowned at Braden’s alluring face. His features were refined and well-curved, and the corners of his eyes were slightly up. He had such an eye-catching appearance.

What enhanced his charm was the aristocratic nature he was born with. He was young, but there was no air of impetuousness about him. He was distant and aloof, and people could not resist being in awe of him.

Josh was also taken aback when he saw Branden. He knew who Branden was, of course, the one in the power of the Duncan Corporation and the heir to the Duncan empire.

Josh took a step forward and faced Branden with respect. The smile on his face turned to one of flattery as he said, “Mr. Duncan, what a coincidence! What brings you here today?”

Branden stepped toward Catherine, and a trace of danger flashed across his deep eyes. He darted a sharp look at Josh while his voice was low.

“It’s not a coincidence. I heard that my future wife was being bullied. That’s why I am here.”

Seeing that the incident was getting out of control and the people involved were big shots, the service assistant informed the mall’s management team for support.

Branden happened to be at the mall for an inspection. He got the news that the daughter of the Swanns had a conflict with others, so he hurried to the shop to have a look.

It was indeed Catherine!

Branden’s claim surprised everyone there.

“Future wife?” Josh looked at Branden in bewilderment, wondering who Branden was referring to among the females there.

Branden noticed Josh’s confusion and did not mind giving Josh a heads-up.

“Mr. Burton, you’re a successful businessman. Didn’t you do some background checks before taking action?”

Malice flickered in Branden’s eyes. Although the smile on Branden’s face was gentle, it made Josh feel like kneeling before him in terror.
